Welcome | SEPTEMBER 2011 We have now added a SEARCH engine to facilitate faster navigation through this website. Thank you. JASON MURPHY, e-mail: jm392@le.ac.uk Country: United Kingdom I would like to contact any Anglo-Indians, through this website, who may have lived in India or Burma during British colonial times, and who would be willing to answer some questions via e-mail or letter for my dissertation. I am a geography student at the University of Leicester. Many thanks .. .. .. .. jason Murphy ------------------------------------------------------------- Margaret Deefholts, Travel Writer, Editor, Photographer: Travel Writers´ Tales Author: Haunting India e-mail:britishcolumbiaairc@gmail.com Hi Folks, Just a heads up about a few new items on our website at www.airc-deefholts2011.com - specifically three rather nostalgic articles about the Community that recently appeared in the Delhi edition of the Hindustan Times. Look down the left hand column for the links. I´m not sure how long they will remain "live" so if you´d like to take a look, you should try to do so within the next week or two. While you´re there, do browse through some of the other articles on the site; I´ll be changing the contents at the end of September. For those of you in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland - just a brief reminder about our karaoke party on Friday August 26th at the Urban Peppers restaurant in Burnaby. Starts at 6.00 pm. The buffet costs $15.00 p.p. and their well stocked bar will be open for business. If you need any more information, please call me at 604-593-0065.

PLEASE CUT AND PASTE INTO YOUR BROWSER The release of this new book was sent in by LYNNE HADLEY,Melbourne, Australia http://www.lulu.com/product/paperback/the-autobiography-of-a-wanderer-in-england-burma/15060511 Hi All, This book has just been released. The Memoirs were written by former Mayor of Rangoon, Charles Haswell Campagnac. Those who have read Herbert Stark´s book, "Call of the Blood", may remember seeing a reference to "Young Campagnac"....the Anglo-Indian grandfather of the author of the Memoirs? An interesting description of this mysterious young man is in here. The memoirs are a fabulous read, containing a lot of previously unpublished material relating to John Simon (Simon Commission), the Round Table Conferences, and some fascinating snippets relating to some of the most prominent people of the era. The bit where CHC and his wife are presented at the Royal Court in England, is pure gold, as is CHC´s description of his brief career in the Music Halls of Paris. A delightful peek into the lives and times of a wide range of people in India, Burma and abroad. Cheers, Lynne. :)) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Ms Rebeiro: It´s good to hear people taking an active interest in our Anglo Indian community.
